Think labour is just contractions?? Think again!!

From loose stools and period-like cramps to nesting, back ache and that "I just feel different" feeling - your body can give you some pretty unexpected signs that labour may be approaching.

That unexpected ⚡ zap in your pelvis? Yep, it's probably lightening crotch!

A sharp shooting pain that can stop you in your tracks, but it's also a very common pregnancy symptom as your baby moves lower and puts pressure on the nerves in your pelvis.

It's uncomfortable, it's surprising but you're definitely not alone ❤️

Your body is changing for a reason!

If your ni***es have become darker during pregnancy, take a deep breath - this is a completely normal part of your body's incredible journey.

As your hormones rise, your body naturally produces more pigment, helping to prepare you for feeding your baby after birth.

Every change can feel unfamiliar, but it doesn't mean something is wrong. It means your body is adapting in the most remarkable way.

Be gentle with yourself, your changing body deserves kindness, not criticism ❤️

YOU have a voice, YOU have choices and YOU deserve to understand them ❤️
Sometimes during pregnancy and birth it can feel like decisions are happening to you, especially in the moment!
BRAIN is a really simple tool that can help you pause, ask questions and make informed decisions ✨

🧠B = What are the Benefits?
🧠R = What are the Risks?
🧠A = What are the Alternatives?
🧠 I = What does my Intuition say?
🧠N = What happens if I do Nothing?

Using BRAIN doesn't mean saying no to every intervention, it means understanding your options, asking questions and making decisions with confidence alongside your maternity team ❤️

Every labour is different. Every birth is unique. And every parent deserves to feel informed, respected and heard.

Your body is making room for a miracle ❤️

Did you know that during pregnancy, your organs don't simply stay where they are - they actually shift, stretch and adapt to make space for your growing baby.
It's one of the most incredible examples of what the human body is capable of!

❤️Your heart pumps more blood
🫁 Your lungs work differently as your diaphragm moves upwards
🫘Your kidneys filter more waste
🤰🏼Your uterus grows from the size of a pear to a watermelon
🤱🏼Your bladder, stomach and intestines all adjust to your baby's growing home

So if you're feeling uncomfortable, breathless or wondering why everything feels different, remember this :

Your body is adapting. Your body is powerful. Your body is extraordinary.
